| Comments on Moerch DP-8 Dsremer,Thanks for the response. How would you compare it to the UP4 sonically? What cartridge(s) are you using? | |
| Lyra Kleos: tracking force/VTA/azimuth questions I use a MyWeigh digial scale that's nearly half an inch thick. To set VTF at the record surface, I made a little jig by hacksawing a 2-in. and a 5-in. piece from a plastic ruler, drilling a hole at one end of each piece, and connecting them in an ... | |
| looking to audition Running Springs P C-- I use home brew cords that a dealer-friend makes from Furutech cable and ends. | |
| Help me pick a great phono cable FWIW, I owned for a Mac C2300 for a while and used the cables I mentioned with that preamp. I did not end up using the phono section of the C2300 much, however, because I bought a Steelhead. But the cables worked well with it. | |
| looking to audition Running Springs P C-- I have a Dmitiri, Haley, and Duke in separate systems, and I think they're quite special. However, I've heard from a former RSA dealer (who dropped the line after the sale) that ATI bought the company for its RTI cap division, with the RSA product... | |
| Help me pick a great phono cable Furutech AG12 and Silver Audio Silver Breeze are both very good performers and good values, with the former an especially good deal. The AG12 is the warmer of the two but still offers good balance and extension. The Silver Breeze is very balanced ... | |
| Graham Tone Arm/Orbe Turntable I used a 2.2 for years on an Orbe SE and found it a very enjoyable combo. It's definitely the Graham to use on an Orbe. | |
| TriPlanar Tips That was a cheap shot, as I'm sure you know. | |
| Moving coil with a bit less leading edge Ttboald-- My K&K SUT took quite a while to lose its edginess, so that might have been part of it. | |
| Moving coil with a bit less leading edge Opus88, you could also try different tubes in your phono stage. It's less expensive than new gear and can make a huge difference. Just a thought. Glad you got the sound near to where you want it. | |
| Moving coil with a bit less leading edge Opus, you know what you're hearing and you describe it admirably. And you have a very fine system that should produce excellent sonic textures. I agree that the soundwave from an orchestra in a concert hall or a jazz ensemble in a well-designed ac... | |
| Moving coil with a bit less leading edge Sadly and paradoxically, the word "neutral" must remain forever subjective. Indeed. Just as one person's derogatory "round" is another's exemplary "natural," and one person's "resolving" is another's "aggressive." Most of us believe our system tel... | |
| Moving coil with a bit less leading edge Syntax, which ZYX models are your recommending as recessed in the treble? I owned an an Airy 3SB briefly and it was the opposite of recessed in the treble. | |
| Moving coil with a bit less leading edge That one, too, though I haven't heard it. The Kansui is designed to be little more refined in the highs. And it's slightly higher compliance, so probably more flexible with tonearms. | |
| Moving coil with a bit less leading edge Miyajima Kansui would fit the bill. |
